Hallyu's four kings set to stir Japan

Reporter: Im Da-ham (Tokyo Correspondent) lindakim@asiae.co.kr

The Four Great Kings of Hallyu: top Korean actors Lee Byung-hun, Jang Dong-gun, Song Seung-hun

and Won Bin (from left) are set to gather at Tokyo Dome. [10Asia]

Will there be another miracle at Tokyo Dome, a place that was heated up by the presence of Yonsama near the end of September? After the news broke out that a mega-scale Hallyu event "Here Comes A Miracle: Hallyu's Four Cards - FOUR OF A KIND" was going to be held on December 17, with stars Lee Byung-hun, Jang Dong-gun, Song Seung-hun and Won Bin, people are wondering how huge of a crowd the event will succeed in attracting. The event -- to be held twice (at 12:30 p.m. and 6:30 p.m.) on November 17 -- will be directed by Japan's famous producer and lyricist Akimoto Yasushi with Korean filmmaker Heo Jin-ho in charge of the cinematography. Akimoto Yasushi is currently the producer of AKB48, Japan's top girl band of the moment, but he was more famous as the producer of 1980s female idol group Onyanko Club, one of whose members, Kudo Shizuka, became the wife of Kimura Takuya. He has a good reputation among Hallyu fans in Japan, after directing Lee Byunghun's fan meeting in 2005 at Tokyo Dome and producing all of the actors events in Japan ever since.

The Akimoto-Heo duo is planning a "dramatic reading" at the event, which producer Akimoto described as "a reading of a movie, which will be read and acted out by four actors on stage in accordance with Heo's cinematography. Placing four of Korea's top actors on one stage is nothing short of a miracle. I am also looking forward to this once in a lifetime performance by them." This could be seen as a fresh approach to wipe out the common consensus that "Hallyu events are expensive but do not contain much to see."

The fans are showing tremendous reaction to the news. With each celebrity being huge Hallyu stars, the local fans could not believe all four would appear at a single event and even doubted the authenticity of the news. But some of the fans are complaining about the high ticket price of JPY 15,800 yen. There are even negative comments on the website not only about the ticket price but also about the four stars attending the same event. One fan wrote, "It feels they're putting steak, eel, sushi and seafood soup all on one table. Truthfully, it's overwhelming" while another wrote "Wouldn't it be better to have a separate event, each star per event?" But with the full-throttle publicity by the event's host TBS, ticket reservations have started on November 2 at convenience store around the country and general ticket sales are set to kick of on November 28.

Amidst all these happenings, two of the "Hallyu Four Cards" Won Bin and Jang Dong-gun are meeting fans with new movies prior to the event. Won Bin visited Japan on November 27 to attend the premiere screening for the film "Mother", which opened in Japan. First Lady Miyuki, wife of Prime Minister Hatoyama and an avid Hallyu fan, attended the event and tickets were sold out in two minutes. Won Bin graced the covered of weekly entertainment magazine "Pia" during the Tokyo Film Festival in October, and Japanese media covered Won's first visit in five years after he served his Korea's military duties.

On another note, the Korean Film Council will be hosting "Korean Film Showcase 2009" at the Yurakucho Subaruza Theater from November 21 thru November 30. A total of ten Korean movies will be shown at the showcase, including Jang Dong-gun's "Good Morning President", "The Executioner" and "Castaway on the Moon". Director Jang Jin of "Good Morning President" is scheduled to visit Japan and have a Q&A session as well. Will the 'Four Cards' of the Hallyu prove they are the wild card which will reignite the withered Korean Wave?

4 of Korea’s Top Stars at the Tokyo Dome

GhostWriter in General | 16 Nov 2009 - 03:07 PM

Back in July, the boys of TVXQ / DBSK / Tohoshinki rocked the Tokyo Dome. In September, Bae Yong Joon (Yon-Sama) also had a huge event at the Tokyo Dome. As Christmas approaches, there will be a special present for the Japanese fans as you'll see four of Korea's top actors at the Tokyo Dome in December.

On December 17th, Top Korean stars Lee Byung Hun, Song Seung Hun, Won Bin, and Jang Dong Gun will gather together at the Tokyo Dome for a special Hallyu event titled 'Hallyu's Four of A Kind.' The four actors are experiencing their popularity rising in Japan and the tickets despite the high prices (upwards of $175) are going to be a hot commodity. Most people think that any one of the stars could sell out the Tokyo Dome but to have all four at one place would basically make it assured. In fact, the demand seems to be so high that they will hold two events on December 17th, one at 12:30 PM and the other at 6:30 PM. The First Lady of Japan, Miyuki is also said to be an avid Hallyu fan and will most likely be in attendance. Tickets for the event will go on sale November 28th.

2uss: i remember to hear the news about there will be "four of a kind" event from EOE days. Can you recall about that?

[Guest 2uss]

2uss: i remember to hear the news about there will be "four of a kind" event from EOE days. Can you recall about that?

hi dear joicy :blush:

you know what, if it was mentioned, then it must have slipped my mind, because i truly can't recall

there was a similar event in 25 September, 2005 in Japan @ Tokyo's super saitama arena

it was with Lee Byung Hun, Jang Dong Gun, Kwon Sang Woo, and Kim Seung Woo

the event then was based on a premise to "normal relations" between South Korea and Japan diplomatically, it was in the theme of a closer togetherness... that's why the title of the event back in 2005 was "Hallyu All Star Summit"

however in the this year's "FOUR OF A KIND" event is about the miracle of the 4 men that help in creating the "hallyu wave" of course this is subjective (it's the events way of attraction), but as SSH fans, i'm sure we feel blessed and honored that they chose SSH as one of the 4, there are many, but for them to choose SSH, means that they see him special enough to be included as they termed it -- one of a kind out of the four "miracle men"

it will be different with a fever pitch anticipation, due to the high production cost that was reported by TBS i think, and a super famous Japanese producer/director joining hands with a talented Korean director for cinematography purposes for the event... all are adding to the growing anticipation... there are already complaints of tickets being "very expensive", part of the producers of the event to want some profits in the process due to the high demands of fans wanting to go...

can't wait!!

[Guest 2uss]

regarding SSH playing the piano for his new movie...

it may very well come to reality according to blogs in Japan...

post from njs @ TSH

just read on some japan blogs... it seems that:

- SH mentioned his piano practice is to prepare for the new movie^^

- movie will start shooting in Dec and scheduled to be released next summer!

SH played piano in Himart CF 5 years ago:

from the looks of it... he will play a character that can be violent and at the same time has the "gentleness" side

of him due to his music artistic character... which form a fusing embodiment from the obvious rough character that he

will portray in the movie "Invincible"

very interesting!!

[Woundedheart]

2uss dear thanx for all the updates & pix ^^

what an interesting character SSH's gonna play, a beautiful mixture for me hehe im sooo much addicted to 'dark sides' hehe adding an artistic side is perfection

found this article , talkin abt the stars & the korean rice wine
